ARTsea, a beachfront pop-up art fair, is set to take over Marina del Rey this June

A craft fair, a beer garden and an afternoon by the beach? Sounds like a perfect day to us.

A new community festival dubbed ARTsea is set to take over Marina del Rey on June 10. The free music, art and craft fair will take place at Marina Beach, the sole sandy cove in Marina del Rey’s sheltered harbor, as well as its surrounding parking lots.

ARTsea’s most notable feature will be a pair of pop-up markets at the adjacent County Lot 10. Galleries from around the city, including BBQLA, Early Gravy and Gallery1993, will present select pieces and collections in a mini arts district. The same space will host a maker’s market with crafts from L.A. artisans alongside participatory workshops such as a cardboard aquarium, fingerprint mural and landscape painting session.
